Day 27 - a morning ride on a smokin' hot day.

This morning David took Megan & Joshua out quadding early. It was due to be a hot day (we did hit 39C!) and they wanted to not only beat the heat, but also try out a new spot down towards Parker. It didn't end up being the greatest spot (a bit too rocky) so they headed home, unloaded and just drove from the house to their "usual" spot near the house. Joshua cannot get enough of it! Sarah and I worked on school, baked muffins and watched A Baby Story (her favorite show nowadays!)
The afternoon proved the weatherman correct and we hit smokin' hot temperatures in the high 30s and even hit 39C, didn't quite see 40C. The pavement on the deck was burning hot and the pool was perfect. Sarah and I swam for quite awhile & then the hot, sweaty ATVers arrived! That pool sure felt good to them and they wasted no time getting in to cool off! The rest of the afternoon was spent in the pool. The afternoon rolled into evening and David made a BBQ dinner before we went out for our evening stroll. There are no street lights in Havasu (there's actually a 10PM curfew! If the police see kids out past that hour, they will pick them up and take them home) and so once that sun sets it's very dark outside. With that curfew though, the streets and city is very quiet! The kids and Daddy suited up again and enjoyed an evening swim. The hot tub was on and they would sit in there and then dive into the cool pool. It was a great day, fun evening and another late night. The kids fall asleep in no time with all the outdoor activities these days. We sure are having a fantastic time!
All geared up & ready to ride!
You'll have to excuse the video quality, it's just taken off our camera and it's not good at all, but at least it's something :)
We found orange nail polish at Claire's awhile back and it looked awesome against Sarah's tan (although the color of her skin is a bit off here & I was too lazy to edit ☺)
Matching hands AND toes ☺
Beautiful moon-lit walk tonight!
